This was my main Christmas present this year. My Dad spent about 80+ hours constructing it out of walnut, and some nice walnut burl. The rack holds 10 cues, and still needs to be finished and hung up on my wall. I thought you all might enjoy it. Our family used to restore and sell Victorian antiques, so if you think this is something cobbled together from random pieces think again, it was all 100% handmade and designed by my father. He has been thinking about starting to make these for a little side business, and custom orders would be possible, as far as number of cues held, and wood and woods used etc.. At any rate this one is not for sale, and at the very least I hope you enjoy the pictures.

Your dad is a wonderful craftsman. All that thick walnut must have cost a fortune, to say nothing of the shaping, turning, and carving he did. Great project idea too.

Wow!!

Gorgeous work! Your dad can work the HELL out of some wood, can't he?

If/when he decides to open his side business, let me know. I've got - will have 8-10 cues I'd love to display in a rack like that.

Awesome work, and congrats on your X-mas gift!
